American Standard Version
John, Chapter 4

   1: When therefore the Lord knew that the Pharisees had heard that Jesus was making and baptizing more disciples than John
   2: (although Jesus himself baptized not, but his disciples),
   3: he left Judea, and departed again into Galilee.
   4: And he must needs pass through Samaria.
   5: So he cometh to a city of Samaria, called Sychar, near to the parcel of ground that Jacob gave to his son Joseph:
   6: and Jacob's well was there. Jesus therefore, being wearied with his journey, sat thus by the well. It was about the sixth hour.
   7: There cometh a woman of Samaria to draw water: Jesus saith unto her, Give me to drink.
   8: For his disciples were gone away into the city to buy food.
   9: The Samaritan woman therefore saith unto him, How is it that thou, being a Jew, askest drink of me, who am a Samaritan woman? (For Jews have no dealings with Samaritans.)
   10: Jesus answered and said unto unto her, If thou knewest the gift of God, and who it is that saith to thee, Give me to drink; thou wouldest have asked of him, and he would have given thee living water.
   11: The woman saith unto him, Sir, thou hast nothing to draw with, and the well is deep: whence then hast thou that living water?
   12: Art thou greater than our father Jacob, who gave us the well, and drank thereof himself, and his sons, and his cattle?
   13: Jesus answered and said unto her, Every one that drinketh of this water shall thirst again:
   14: but whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall become in him a well of water springing up unto eternal life.
   15: The woman saith unto him, Sir, give me this water, that I thirst not, neither come all the way hither to draw.
   16: Jesus saith unto her, Go, call thy husband, and come hither.
   17: The woman answered and said unto him, I have no husband. Jesus saith unto her, Thou saidst well, I have no husband:
   18: for thou hast had five husbands; and he whom thou now hast is not thy husband: this hast thou said truly.
   19: The woman saith unto him, Sir, I perceive that thou art a prophet.
   20: Our fathers worshipped in this mountain; and ye say, that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship.
   21: Jesus saith unto her, Woman, believe me, the hour cometh, when neither in this mountain, nor in Jerusalem, shall ye worship the Father.
   22: Ye worship that which ye know not: we worship that which we know; for salvation is from the Jews.
   23: But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and truth: for such doth the Father seek to be his worshippers.
   24: God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship in spirit and truth.
   25: The woman saith unto him, I know that Messiah cometh (he that is called Christ): when he is come, he will declare unto us all things.
   26: Jesus saith unto her, I that speak unto thee am [he].
   27: And upon this came his disciples; and they marvelled that he was speaking with a woman; yet no man said, What seekest thou? or, Why speakest thou with her?
   28: So the woman left her waterpot, and went away into the city, and saith to the people,
   29: Come, see a man, who told me all things that [ever] I did: can this be the Christ?
   30: They went out of the city, and were coming to him.
   31: In the mean while the disciples prayed him, saying, Rabbi, eat.
   32: But he said unto them, I have meat to eat that ye know not.
   33: The disciples therefore said one to another, Hath any man brought him [aught] to eat?
   34: Jesus saith unto them, My meat is to do the will of him that sent me, and to accomplish his work.
   35: Say not ye, There are yet four months, and [then] cometh the harvest? behold, I say unto you, Lift up your eyes, and look on the fields, that they are white already unto harvest.
   36: He that reapeth receiveth wages, and gathereth fruit unto life eternal; that he that soweth and he that reapeth may rejoice together.
   37: For herein is the saying true, One soweth, and another reapeth.
   38: I sent you to reap that whereon ye have not labored: others have labored, and ye are entered into their labor.
   39: And from that city many of the Samaritans believed on him because of the word of the woman, who testified, He told me all things that [ever] I did.
   40: So when the Samaritans came unto him, they besought him to abide with them: and he abode there two days.
   41: And many more believed because of his word;
   42: and they said to the woman, Now we believe, not because of thy speaking: for we have heard for ourselves, and know that this is indeed the Saviour of the world.
   43: And after the two days he went forth from thence into Galilee.
   44: For Jesus himself testified, that a prophet hath no honor in his own country.
   45: So when he came into Galilee, the Galilaeans received him, having seen all the things that he did in Jerusalem at the feast: for they also went unto the feast.
   46: He came therefore again unto Cana of Galilee, where he made the water wine. And there was a certain nobleman, whose son was sick at Capernaum.
   47: When he heard that Jesus was come out of Judaea into Galilee, he went unto him, and besought [him] that he would come down, and heal his son; for he was at the point of death.
   48: Jesus therefore said unto him, Except ye see signs and wonders, ye will in no wise believe.
   49: The nobleman saith unto him, Sir, come down ere my child die.
   50: Jesus saith unto him, Go thy way; thy son liveth. The man believed the word that Jesus spake unto him, and he went his way.
   51: And as he was now going down, his servants met him, saying, that his son lived.
   52: So he inquired of them the hour when he began to amend. They said therefore unto him, Yesterday at the seventh hour the fever left him.
   53: So the father knew that [it was] at that hour in which Jesus said unto him, Thy son liveth: and himself believed, and his whole house.
   54: This is again the second sign that Jesus did, having come out of Judaea into Galilee.
